Notre-Dame de la Trinité Basilica, Modern Catholic basilica in Blois, France.

The Notre-Dame de la Trinité Basilica features a 60-meter-tall tower and extensive use of exposed aggregate concrete throughout its modern architectural design.

Construction began in 1932 under architect Charles-Henri Besnard, but Paul Rouvière took over in 1935 and completed the structure using contemporary materials and methods.

The interior decorations include stained glass windows by Louis Barillet depicting Marian mysteries and a monumental sculptured frieze by Jean Lambert-Rucki.

The basilica complex contains accommodations for visitors, a restaurant, and a park, making it a central location for religious gatherings and pilgrimages.

The basilica received its designation from Pope Pius XII in 1956 and stands as a representation of early 20th-century religious architecture in France.
